Re: August Figure Challenge
Well, this is the first time I've participated in this, so here you go...So far I'm about one and half hours into this. I'll post again as soon as I've made some significant progress.

Re: August Figure Challenge
I'm new to this forum and this challenge. Hope you don't mind if I jump in on this one. I haven't been spending too much energy on figures lately, but here's my attempt.

Re: August Figure Challenge
Hi! i'm new at this channel. I've seen beautiful images and see that every month you've a challenge and the images posted are really beautiful. It's impossible to resist the temptation to paint them. 
I don't have much experience drawing human figures and i'll appreciatte any suggestions to improve my drawing. Even though the image i post is digital, i started it from scratch (using a a wacom tablet) as with real mediums. |
